Sinn Féin Councillor Aidan Mathers has welcomed the completed repairs to Martin Lane Play Park, describing it as a long-overdue step in addressing safety concerns raised by both residents and the council.
“I’m pleased that the much-needed repairs to Martin Lane Play Park have now been completed, ensuring a safer and more enjoyable space for local children and families,” said Councillor Mathers.
“While this is positive news, it’s essential that the council improves communication with residents on safety concerns and project timelines going forward. Timely and transparent engagement helps build trust and ensures the community stays informed.
Councillor Mathers also called on local families and residents to play their part in safeguarding the facility.
“I encourage parents to ensure children respect the park and use it responsibly. I also urge residents to remain vigilant and report antisocial or criminal behaviour so the park remains a welcoming space for all.”
“I will continue working with residents and the Council to push for local repairs and ensure safety and welfare of residents is top priority right across our communities.
